Less Roses

Less Roses
9th of August - 1st of November 2007


Sfeir-Semler Gallery Beirut is very pleased to invite you to its new show Less Roses curated by the German artist, Elger Esser : “ Less Roses is an odd title for an exhibition; as odd and difficult as it is to curate a show in Lebanon, a country that is constantly revisited by political turmoil. This show is not a political statement, it is about art that speaks for itself. Can art represent without the temptation of embellishment? Art can be subversive without being politically correct . In the Title “ Less Roses “ Less expresses the danger of disappearance…but also less can be a sign of concentration on quality…Roses: Flowers are a symbol of natural beauty …“ E.E. Elger Esser invited artists and friends to join him in this adventure. All of them made new works for the Beirut show, Elger Esser and Felix Schramm came to Beirut and are making on site works :
Moritz Altmann
Yto Barrada
Elger Esser
Peter Hopkins
Glen Rubsamen
Felix Schramm

Zatoichi


In my own personal opinion Takeshi Kitano does not compare to Shintaro Katsu. But the movie is actually a good movie. I will not spoil it for you.

Playing at Tonga in Hamra on Tuesday Sept 25th.
